If it's that shite why do you do it mobile? If it makes it that much less miserable I'll put in links.

I also had no recollection that THIS thread decided they want reddit links while other threads specifically do not want them.

I sit at the dollar+ slots with some money loaded and wait for them to show up and order a drink with a specific booze so I don’t get garbage. After that I cash the money out and wait on my drink. If that’s to much work go to cvs and get some walking around twisted tea for cheap.

Will you be smart enough to cash out when you're in top so that you can get that $20k engagement ring you mentioned and then get hitched by Elvis?

The casinos in Vegas didn't seem to care when I carried booze in so I just did that instead of paying for $16 cocktails.

The prepaid maintenance plan is not the trap, the 15% per year depreciation and $10k in wear items between 60-100k that aren't included in "maintenance" are the BWM parts.

The $1100 set of tires and the brake pads will never last 60-100k miles, but the solution to any problem at 60-100k miles is to not own a clapped-out super high miles M2

Did they run out of polygons before they got to bumper? Had to borrow a design from PSX Wipeout?

Also lol isn’t first three years included by default? If not, what’d you pay for? Two oil changes?

I'll give you 40% of purchase price at 3 years for it. That's more than you'll get anywhere else.

Am i being a prick?

Basically my SO (26f) is unemployed and has begun spending £80 a week renting a horse. Her total income is about £130 a week in benefits including child maintenance and we obviously have bills to pay for and rent. I didn't think it was really an option to spend that much money so she could see a horse from time to time but she feels it's completely justified. She's quick to criticise my choice to go out for some drinks maybe once every month or two and I do work full time. For the sake of peace I've told her I'm happy with her decision as long as she can continue contributing towards rent (£35 a week for her) but she's really pissed off that I insisted she explain how she's going to be able to afford it. What do you think, was I an rear end in a top hat to question her choice?

False, probably 70-75% of MSRP is reasonable for an M2

If you marry it, then it gets legally redefined again to be your spouse, but then it has to go through the immigration process. This could take years and thousands of dollars in plane tickets and attorney's fees. I would stick with your car being a horse because then it's just a quarantine for a couple of weeks and a visit to the vette.

I like that $40k to his father guy didn’t first think “get my money anywhere else, then figure out what to do.” Better let that cash sit in that shared account while you decide if you like the Ally or Amex website.
